Security

Let’s get our hands dirty. First step in building fraud investigation and security analytics platform with TeaLeaf is making TeaLeaf’s data available for Splunk. Then Splunk will take care of all the deep security queries and specialized investigative dashboarding.

TeaLeaf comes with cxConnect for Data Analysis component.

TeaLeaf cxConnect

“Tealeaf cxConnect for Data Analysis is an application that enables the transfer of data from your Tealeaf CX datastore to external reporting environments. Tealeaf cxConnect for Data Analysis can deliver data in real-time to external systems such as event processing systems or enable that data to be retrieved in a batch mode. Extraction of customer interaction data into log files, SAS, Microsoft SQL Server or Oracle databases are supported. Data extraction jobs can be run on a scheduled or ad-hoc basis. Flexible filters and controls can be used to include or exclude any sessions or parts of sessions, according to your business reporting needs”.

IBM TeaLeaf cxConnect hourly log extraction task

Although from my experience “real-time” claim is a long shot (at least I didn’t find a way to accomplish above in real-time), but I managed to do pretty successful regular, hourly, detailed TeaLeaf log exports.

cxConnect Daily extraction task

If you’d try to use cxConnect right off the bat for log exports and select all default options – you’ll end up with humongous set of files that will contain mountain data you don’t really need wasting your disk space. It took me quite a while to configure cxConnect to export data that i need and to make it not include data that i don’t need.

Within cxConnect “Configured Tasks” menu – you may create any scheduled task. For our purpose I’ve created two tasks – one is hourly and second is daily. […]

IBM TeaLeaf is one of the leading customer experience management platforms from IBM.

IBM TeaLeaf is set of tools allowing enterprises to record all customer interactions with their Web Application portals with further capabilities of visual session replays. IBM TeaLeaf also offers a set of interfaces to design custom events, alerts, dashboards and visual reports.

TeaLeaf allows to define custom reporting dimensions that could be very specific to the given business needs.
Tracking clicks, conversions, customer struggles, optimizing sales funnels, analyzing mobile experiences, presenting any kind of data in a visually appealing way are only few of many available benefits that TeaLeaf offers.

TeaLeaf generally offers two ways to search for pieces of information – via it’s browser interface (“Search” menu option) or using RealiTea Viewer (RTV) – separate desktop application allowing to run raw searches via direct connections to TeaLeaf data repository (data canisters).
The main advantage of RTV is that it allows to run searches on currently active sessions (in other words with almost no delay in obtaining fresh traffic data) as well as it is quite fast. […]
